Gordon, This is late but my thoughts, if the gun is not in good condition restore it otherwise I would leave it alone you just waste your money like they say refinish you ruin the value, orginal is best if you want a new gun buy one..I collect Remington Doubles

Skeller, I get telephone calls on Remington Doubles often I am glad to help with what Model and Grade they have I always have time to talk about Doubles..

There are different ways you can sell, the main thing is you get a fair price for the guns.You won't get it at gun shop.I belong to the R.S.A. and collect all Models of Remington Doubles if I can help in any way. Also I would be interested in buying any Grades I don't have.
